Description
Exhibits identical protein binding activity. Involved in several processes, including actin filament organization; calcium import into the mitochondrion; and convergent extension involved in gastrulation. Predicted to localize to integral component of mitochondrial inner membrane and uniplex complex. Is expressed in brain; heart; heart tube; and visceral fat. Orthologous to human MCU (mitochondrial calcium uniporter).
